"nikkas is frontin, that's upside down cake..."

[OG Talk]

"give em a red nose, they clown cake."
That line and its delivery made Hov sound so

Is it time for him to throw in the towel?

Double entendre

The red cherries on pineapple upside down cake look identical to clown noses in shape and color..The red nose is also another way to describe what happens when infrared beams are pointed at your face. Triple entendre.. The Black Edgar Allen Poe delivers again..

 

[Enchanted]

I was thinking the same thing but didn't want to believe it...

I was like...nah...Hov wouldn't put a bad quasi homo adlib on top of the terrible verse...

I wonder what drake thought...

and for some reason when he said "last night was mad trill" shyt made me

shyt was disgustin bruh

Went over your heads as usual. Half the site got a middle school education.

nikkas can't do math or decipher analogies.

What's there to figure out? it was a basic ass wack ass line

GTFOH with this bullsh*t

Phoned in verse by Jigga.

We off that

Are you fools kidding me, who quotes 1/5th of a quote?
He had 5-6 lines about cake, the beauty in it was how long he could stretch the metaphors/entendres.

A/round cake, carrot/karat cake, upside down = front/back = frontin all in order to introduce the list of nikkas he put on for, cakewise.

I'm a jay fan and that was by far the worst verse I've heard from him. Maybe I'm missing something and it went over my head, but until that's proven I will continue to skip that verse.

Rap genius is gon' make sense of all of this for us

You literally got me at my computer looking like

Is it wrong or what the fukk are you talking about?

Miss me with the small talk, if you've got something to say and I could've avoided responding to you.

nikkas ain't showing their fronts like an upside down cake.
The inversion of front is back, showing your back is almost equivalent with being upside down.

I didn't even catch the "I got a pound cake line"
Might be a stretch but a pound is 0.45 kilos, Jay-z's networth is 0.45 billion or it was last year.

who cares if it's 1/5th? that sh1t was still

1. It wasn't bad, it might not have been a 5 mic line but it was far from bad.
It made perfect sense, had two actual meanings, played on the songs theme and merged perfectly with a whole quote treating the same subject.

2. You still can't take one line out of a continuous series of connected lines and completely out of context. Also a lot of lines are there to make nikkas laugh or force a reaction like "this nikka..". Acting intellectual or gangsta are not the only ways to deliver your raps son.

Jay-z aint an elite lyricist in 2013


He aint got it no more........nikka r&b features in his prime better then the shyt he spit now

 

[Dreadknox77]

Couple lines not even in th full context of the song..and it's trash.
